“Dark Delicacies” Closing Physical Shop – Interview with Del Howison
In an unassuming strip mall, there’s a small shop that has darkened windows that hides what type of wares you might find behind the door. A black sign adorns the purple-painted wall, giving the name. Inside is a smallish shop – intimate. One could almost say … unsettling. Read the interview over at The Geekiary.
